Part 16 (1/2)

Of despair!

How they clang, and clash, and roar!

What a horror they outpour On the bosom of the palpitating air!

Yet the ear it fully knows.

By the tw.a.n.ging,

And the clanging, How the danger ebbs and flows; Yet the ear distinctly tells,

In the jangling,

And the wrangling, How the danger sinks and swells, By the sinking or the swelling in the anger of the bells- Of the bells- Of the bells, bells, bells, bells,

Bells, bells, bells-

In the clamour and the clangor of the bells!

IV.

Hear the tolling of the bells-.
